The persona non grata who lives on the Web

Let’s talk. Better still, let’s look at other people trying to talk. Let’s meet and read a home page on the World Wide Web or see what’s posted on the bulletin boards. we’ll take print-outs and use e-mail addresses to send messaages requesting more information. We’ll think of it as hi-tech, hi-touch conversation. We’ll see what it looks like and think graphic design. Here we go . . .
